Frequently asked questions

How does the post work when not in use?

It retracts down into its concrete-in socket and is concealed by an integral lid, so the surface stays clear when access isn't being restricted.

Does it come with a padlock?

You can choose a variant with a 40mm brass padlock included (identical or random key), or a variant with no padlock if you'd rather supply your own.

What post widths are available?

60mm or 70mm square posts. The 60mm post weighs 13kg overall with a 4kg lift weight; the 70mm post weighs 17kg overall with a 5kg lift weight.

Can I get it in a specific colour?

Yes. Alongside plain galvanised, it can be powder-coated to any BS or RAL colour standard - just provide your preferred code when ordering.

How deep does the socket need to be?

The concrete-in socket depth is 815mm.

Is it suitable for a domestic driveway?

Yes, alongside commercial car parks and vehicle forecourts, it's a common choice for domestic driveway access control.

Dispatch is 10 to 15 working days across all finishes and padlock options.
